Former Detroit 187 cop Jon Michael Hill is back on the beat this fall with a recurring gig on CBS’ new Sherlock Holmes update Elementary, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Elementary, which landed CBS’ plum Thursday at 10 pm timeslot, is being billed as a modern take on the cases of the pipe-smoking private eye with Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) now living in NYC. Lucy Liu co-stars as his Watson.

Hill, whose other credits include Eastbound & Down and Person of Interest, will play a detective working alongside the pair.
